    9/10 and 9/10 should have got them all really since I've been on all of them.

    Incredible isn't it? Even Filbert Street seems to retain the basic shape of a football ground. Where the Victoria Ground stood, from that angle you'd never know anything had ever been there.

    And the view of the pitch better than at Loftus Road. Even from behind a tree.

    7 and 6 but I should have done better on a couple of them

    loved the photo of the players surrounding the ref Looks like Man Utd have been doing this since at least the days of Charlton and Best

    8/10 7/10 , love to see old grounds with their own character rather than the generic bowls we have to endure nowadays.
